Traffic and the Environment:Dynamic Simulation of Traffic and Urban Air Quality

Environmental impacts of traffic are of major concern throughout many
European metropolitan areas, CO, NOx, Ozone, PM10 and PM2.5 but also
air toxics being public health related concerns..

There is a lack of comprehensive and fast tools to estimate the level of
pollution resulting from varying traffic flow conditions that would allow
to optimize control strategies. SIMTRAP will develop such a tool
based on high-performance computing and networking (HPCN)
technologies, and apply and test in four European metropolitan areas:
Berlin, Milano, Vienna, and the Maastricht in the Netherlands.
